Photographer’s Note

Hit the road Jack
Too bad nobody wanted to come with me to a small North Atlantic experience taking place next weex. Anyway: I´ll leave next Sunday from Bergen (west coast Norway) with the huge car ferry "Norrøna" to arrive 20 hrs. later in the island group Færøyene (Faroe Islands) monday morning. Should be an interesting place to visit a bit off season..

You find a map right here >>

This photo from a veteran car exhibition some time back..

Bonjour, cher Jack,
Excellent coup d'oeil pour cette très originale photographie. Les flancs blancs cela rappelle une partie de mon enfance, je me souviens avoir nettoyé les flancs blancs de la voiture de mon père !
Le reflet au niveau du pare-chocs est parfait, celui-ci restitue des souvenirs lointains.
Amitiés.
Philippe

Hello Jack,

A pity for you that nobody came show up.
A nice reflection in the bumper of the car, one of those old American car.
Also the half wheel make this picture very well. TFS.

Have a nice week,
John.

Hi Jack,
I like detail shots like this. Volvo (is it?) reflection is well placed on the bumper. I'm not quite sure why, but I'd like to see the center of the wheel within frame. Now it's just outside on the left.

Hi Jack. Well seen this detail of the classic car, and the colorful distorted reflections make for a fun aspect of this catch. Have a good trip to Faroe Islands, and I look forward to seeing some photos from there.

Hi Jack

Excellent job! You have the eye for the detail. Perfect reflection in the bumper of the car.
I would have loved to come but Aline will be in hospital at the end of the week for a minor operation on her foot, and she will have difficulties to walk when she comes out again.
Regards and bring back some nice out of season shots.
John

Hi, Jack. I like your invitation to travel suggested by the tyre of the car. The icing on the cake her is the reflection of the colourful cars on the chrome. simple, but effective.
Have a nice evening and enjoy your trip to the Faroe Islands,
Philippe

Hello Jack

I like the 2 symmetrical color reflections in the chrome at left & right. A superb pov on the car, with an unusual pov. Tfs!

Hei Jack,

Excellent and very original shot. No doubt about it that you are at veteran car show. It not only the veteran cars in the reflection. The tyre also tell us that this the tyre of an old car. A superb and unusual photo job. TFS and have a nice Saturday!

P.S. Have a nice trip to Færøyene. I am sure you will come back with a lot of exciting pictures to show us even if no one could come with you.
